Filly Brown

Filly Brown was such a powerful an amazing movie. I have never been to a film festival before, so I am honored to have attended this one with my fellow Price Scholars. The movie was great, even though it wasn't the best movie I have seen, it was still an outstanding movie.

What did stand out to me the most was actually seeing the actors/actresses and listening to the questions the audience gives, as well as the answers. One person from City College mentioned our school and asked for words of advice, or something motivational to keep the students in school and to follow their dreams.

I honestly forgot every detail and what the answers were, but all I know is; at that exact moment, I felt surprised and out of this world. I wish I had a good memory of what they said because I just felt absolutely amazed.

"IT"

Is that a girl or a boy? And you smile because today maybe you might just pass. But then you see their eyes register no facial hair, no knot in your throat, no bulge in your pants. They say it again, louder, tauntingly.
Is that a girl or a boy. This time they know the answer and they just want to see you squirm. And you do. And they snicker.

There are no words for the emotions that this video causes. 

That was the description I saw of this video when I was scrolling through my Tumblr dashboard. As the person who commented said, There are seriously no words to how I felt all throughout watching this video. It was such a powerful open word that I wanted to cry. I know there was no blog assignment for the week, but this was honestly too powerful to not share with everybody
